The revolving door at WWJ
In addition to KT, Brooke Allen, and others, I noticed that young reporter Alexis Ware has been missing as well. Looks like she found a nice gig:

That’s not a big loss. She had serious delivery issues.Colonel Flagg wrote: ↑Fri Nov 03, 2023 1:20 pmIn addition to KT, Brooke Allen, and others, I noticed that young reporter Alexis Ware has been missing as well. Looks like she found a nice gig:

Tracy McCaskill also has delivery issues with her voice and tone all over the place. She's been in the business for years, no excuse.

I like her presentation for the most part.
Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.
Re: The revolving door at WWJ
She has kind of an odd delivery but she doesn’t have annunciation issues. She has one of those voices that rise at the end of a sentence. Alexis Ware had issues with annunciation.

Issues? Alexis Ware was unlistenable. But I think you mean enunciation.............unless she had a problem with the angel Gabriel
Re: The revolving door at WWJ
It also rises in the middle of a sentence to almost a squeak. Very annoying.

Now would be a great time to send in a resume and demo. The way these stations are hemorrhaging talent, we would have to be a shoe-in.

Re: The revolving door at WWJ
With a little more work, I think Alexis would have been very good. There's not a lot of young people who are interested in the biz anymore. Where was she supposed to go to learn? West Branch? Lansing? I'd bet everyone is gone by 4:30.
Tracy McCaskill is very good in a supporting role, co-anchoring, but I am not fond of her solo. Hopefully that will change.
I still enjoy hearing veteran broadcasters like Mike Campbell, and Pat Vitale. They were both there when I was there. I won't say how many years ago, but Roger Nadel and Tom Bell were running the show. The business was still fun back then.

Wow… I botched that. I’m a shoe in for WWJ now. Actually I don’t mind most of the people there.Dan in Northville wrote: ↑Fri Nov 03, 2023 7:37 pmIssues? Alexis Ware was unlistenable. But I think you mean enunciation.............unless she had a problem with the angel Gabriel
